GET https://circleci.com/api/v2/project/{project-slug}/pipeline with header Circle-Token: $CIRCLE_TOKEN to list pipelines for the project.
Optional query param 'branch' filters to pipelines for a given vcs branch; optional 'page-token' retrieves the next page of results.
Each returned item includes an 'id' (uuid) and a 'state' field with possible values: created, errored, setup, setup-pending, pending.
Take an id from the list and call GET https://circleci.com/api/v2/pipeline/{pipeline-id} with header Circle-Token to fetch that single pipeline's full record and current state.
Continue paging by passing the response's next_page_token value back as the page-token query parameter until next_page_token is null.
The pipeline-level field is called 'state' (created/errored/setup/setup-pending/pending), not 'status' - status is used at the workflow/job level instead; mixing these up is a common integration bug.
Pagination: the response field is next_page_token (null on the last page) and the request query parameter is page-token (hyphenated).
429 rate-limit responses are possible on list calls; CircleCI returns RateLimit-Limit/RateLimit-Remaining/RateLimit-Reset headers and a Retry-After header when throttled.
